Mandatory Credit: Sergei Belski-USA TODAY Sports The Washington Capitals acquired forward Andrew Mangiapane from the Calgary Flames on Thursday for a draft pick.
The Flames received a 2025 second-round selection that the Capitals got from the Colorado Avalanche for forward Lars Eller in March 2023.
"Today's trade provides us with an increase in valuable draft capital and we have continued to emphasize the importance of how upcoming drafts will influence the future of our franchise," Flames general manager Craig Conroy said. "Additionally, this move affords us with more salary-cap and roster flexibility to make decisions after July 1."
Mangiapane, 28, had 14 goals and 26 assists in 75 games for the Flames last season. He has played all seven of his NHL seasons in Calgary, accumulating 109 goals and 106 assists in 417 games.
This is the latest move in Washington's attempt to add offense. The Capitals averaged 2.63 goals last season, ranked 28th in the NHL. Washington picked up center Pierre-Luc Dubois from the Kings last week in exchange for goalie Darcy Kuemper. Dubois had 16 goals and 24 assists last season for Los Angeles.
